Officials testify about protecting the Energy Sector from cybersecurity threats attacks here and abroad. Looking at ways federal Research Facilities and private concerns can help Companies Operating the electrical grid, Pipeline System and infrastructure. This hearing is an hour and 35 minutes. Good morning, everyone. The committee will come to order. I apologize. A little later start than i had hoped. Over the years, we have conducted a number of hearings designed to examine the vulnerabilities of our nations electric grid system.

The first hurdle in automated response is trust by third party. We need to ensure that theres trust in remediation. Once we have been able to solve the trust, utility, National Labs and agencies can distribute remediation into the grid allowing them to rapidly respond. In summary, identity, trusted data, isolated networks, response and remediation, technologies for defense. Battlefield continues to change. We need to protect find ways to prote
